Dire Wolf Skull
The holidays are, by far, the best time of year to get away with stuffing science into your friends' socks. Even -- or especially -- if they're not total science nerds. So, from bug-friendly garden blooms to a tiny 3-D map of the universe to petri dishes drawn on silk, we have some geeky goodies for you.
Let's start with the Dire Wolf Skull above in tar-pit finish for $225 from Bone Clones. We're not sure "home decor" is the primary purpose behind these bony replicas, but that doesn't mean tricking out your house (or someone else's) isn't a totally legit reason to indulge in some osteological goodies.
Fancy an Atlantic bottlenose dolphin for the bathroom? Or maybe you need a sabertooth cat skull to keep an eye on the booze. And, especially if you're a GoT fan, you don't really need a reason to get a dire wolf skull. For those of you with a mansion, we think the megalodon jaws would make an excellent frame for the front door.
